This was linked by TrueHoop and I thought it represented an extreme of the NBA spectrum. The writer, Haralabos Voulgaris (who is a professional poker player and uses statistics and databases for sports) reaches the conclusion that Miami have wrapped up the next 5 titles with the signing of Mike Miller, who provides the outside shooting that is needed because of the drives D-Wade and LeBron utilize so often. When I read the article, I felt obliged to share it with the rest of SSR.

Western Conference Playoffs

• Lakers vs Jazz
  - Deron Williams makes the Laker point guards look like life sized robots and I'm not talking about the cool Terminator robots or Transformers. No, I'm talking C3PO type robots from Star Wars. Unfortunately for D-Will, the rest of the Utah Jazz are also turned into C3POs and are incapable of dealing with snakes, the second coming of Stretch Armstrong, the Spanish Armada, and centers who rehab with playboy bunnies. Lakers in 5.
• Hornets vs Nuggets
  - CP3 goes insane, JR Smith becomes the first player to shoot 50 treys in one half, Nene dunks on everyone, Tyson Chandler jumps through the roof, Peja finally gets his shooting rhythm back, and David West headbutts himself. But Chauncey calms everyone down and wins it for George Karl. Nuggets in 6
• Mavericks vs Spurs
  - Before this round begins, Coach Pop tells his team that the Mavericks are a dangerous team and are built to beat the Spurs. Then they remembered that Cuban traded away Devin Harris. Spurs in 7
• Blazers vs Rockets
  - The team of the future faces the team of the... well, the Rockets. Brandon Roy plays great. Lamarcus Aldridge shows off his sweet stroke. Greg Oden fouls out every single game and sends Yao to the free throw line a gazillion times. Meanwhile, in between all of these things happening, Ron Artest reminds the world that Lebron James is just Ron Artest version 2.0. Cleveland throws up and Houston wins it in 6. After all, the 3rd time's the charm. Wait, are you sure it's the third?
